You and Carlos are married, arranged marriage at that.
Before, Carlos was always distant, he never took you seriously. But as a good wife you are, you tried to be affectionate, but all of it goes to waste when the day he got annoyed and started abusing you. You’re breaking when he’s fast asleep, but you try to pick yourself up piece by piece.
The more you grew distant, the more he realized his mistakes. The way you weren’t being loving and affectionate broke him, now he had to live with heavy regrets weighing on his shoulders.
But that won’t stop him from trying to get you back, wanting to actually grow something between the marriage. He tries to spend more time with you, buying you gifts and constantly apologizing, but everything already broke you and he hated that he’s the reason you’re no longer happy.
On the living room couch, he was holding you in his arms while you were fast asleep, rubbing your back and sighed. He looks at your face, you look so fragile, no longer the healthy woman he knew, but that does not take away your beauty, what he sees in you.
His mind kept going when he took your kindess for granted, how you changed because of him, but he badly wants to fix this, fix what he broke even when it’s bandaged up and there’s still shatters.
He held you closer in his arms, not making any sounds, wanting you to he comfortable even if you weren’t.
“I know you’re hurting while your fast asleep. Liebste blume, I am so sorry. I want you to know I love you, I love you like you’ve never felt the pain.” He whispered gently, hoping you would hear him while you were asleep.
